This is annoying when I'm trying to get caught up on my reading. Why is this happening?

EDIT: this also affects subforum links and thread links, but not, say, the wiki link.

It would be nice, if the editor can be witched into a BBCode edit mode. I doesn't like the graphical editor. If you post something in BBCode like:

[b]Big[/b]

it get parsed from the forum, but there is no way to edit a post in BBCode.

Could we have a better way of notifying people to mark the best answer as best? Currently, almost no one remembers to do that. It is somewhat annoying that a question which supposedly doesn't have a solution actually does.

The wiki has been down for two days now.

ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT from ocdoc.cil.li

Same issue on multiple computers and networks.

Is anyone aware of this?

Some people told me they didn't get a confirmation mail.

I tried to reset my passwort to test if the email system of the form is dead and the reset email also never got it into my mailbox. The spam folder is empty so I think oc.cil.li can't send emails.

I was already aware of a 6502 architecture, and was thinking of making a 65c816 architecture. I poked around the forums to see what other architecture modules were in development, and found GreaseMonkey's MIPS architecture and evidence of another ARM architecture at least as far along as mine*.

A lot of work has been done by separate people on solving the various problems posed by developing a "real" architecture for OpenComputers. (The biggest of course being the component communication problem.) As far as I can tell (from not being on IRC), this has all taken place independently. This has probably resulted in a lot of wasted effort. In particular, my own work and that of the other ARM architecture's author probably overlapped heavily.

It seems that what coordination and communication has been done has been done mainly over IRC. This is well and good for those who are on IRC regularly, or at least "lurk". However, in my experience, long-term prospects of that means of coordination are poor as no record is left behind. People and work can disappear. It works for ad hoc efforts, and projects by small, existing groups, but it's not good for this kind of cross-project coordination.

Since the era of the mailing list seems to be over, I propose creating a subforum dedicated to architecture module development. Stuff like GreaseMonkey's hardbus proposal, or my (designed to be general) component interchange wire format, would be more likely to be seen there than where they are now (respectively on GitHub and in a tarball on an obscure website). We could also swap techniques for things like clock cycle management, virtual memory optimization, even JIT... There currently isn't a forum that really fits for these things. On top of that, a subforum would provide more of a record of what architectures are currently being worked on, and by whom, and how far along they are. It would do a lot to prevent unnecessary duplication of effort.

*This was discouraging, to say the least, coming as it did right after I had arranged a regular ration of time to work on OC-ARM. All other issues aside, it seems like a waste of my time to do something someone else may have already done. Especially if my result is incompatible with theirs. The ARM ecosystem is fragmented enough with subtly-incompatible everything already, and I have now unknowingly added to that in a small way. Plus, their module has a way cooler name than mine.

On touch devices (smartphones and tablets) there is no way to do that, so it is impossible to quote people or edit posts.

Just started with OpenComputers and it took me a while to figure out why most of the documented functions just weren't working. Turned out the documentation is just plain wrong.

Example:

Wiki:

robot.forward()

Actually:

robot.move(sides.forward)

I don't mind the code update, but without a proper documentation there is hardly anyone going to use this mod.]]>247Thu, 28 Aug 2014 10:40:26 +0000Could we add power costs to wiki pages?https://oc.cil.li/topic/259-could-we-add-power-costs-to-wiki-pages/I don't see anywhere on the wiki where it says how much power it actually takes to power a computer. I know that screens take more power the more of their pixels are on, but I don't know what the minimum and maximum power drains are, and I don't know anything at all about what other components' costs (or actions' costs, for robots) are. Now, my current power system is massively over-engineered, but it'd be nice to be able to do some adding up and know ahead of time how much power I need in reserve when I'm getting started on a new world; in a situation where the number is likely to vary a lot, knowing the maximum would be sufficient.]]>259Fri, 05 Sep 2014 13:26:30 +0000Hey, Wiki, what's a component bus?https://oc.cil.li/topic/257-hey-wiki-whats-a-component-bus/I mean, I know what it is now, because I saw the icon in the server's sockets, wondered what it was, and used NEI to search the OpenComputers parts until I found one that looked like the icon.
